SENIO PROPHECY Strange, how you can go for years without seeing a soul you know, and then, one day come upon so many friends. Yesterday I lunched with the wealthy socialite, Mrs. Lorene Blair. Her chauffeur, Edwin Evans, took us around New York and Mrs. Blair pointed out places of interest. We went through the Bronx Zoo, and of all people, there was Horace Knowles, serving as Chief Monkey Tender and Hippopotamus Waterer. There, also, was Elouise Lee, selling peanuts, popcorn, crackerjack, etc. She was dressed in a short yellow skirt and red jacket. We went through Radio City and there we saw Pattie Odom, announcer for the Hokum, Yokum, and Slocum Korny Krackles Cereal Company. Entertainers on the fifteen-minute program were Edna Carlton, leader of the All-Girl Orchestra, which included Peggy Lee, bass horn,- Fannie B. Hunter, trumpet; Janie Lou Slaughter, cymbals; Melba Brannen, drums, and Aurmer Mae Ward, flute. Also on the program was the celebrated crooner, Daisy Ruth Sappatra. Stopping at a theater on Breadway we found Virginia Albritton as Veronica Lake, and Betty Widner as Dorothy Lamour, co-starring in one of Ima Jean Holt's and Gladys Maddox's productions. The ticket seller was none other than Mary Lois Johnson with the aid of Kathlyn McHargue. The carpenter for this big event was A. C. Ellison, with Aurmer Mae Ward holding tacks for him. On our way out we saw Hula-Bula Jean Benson, just returned from a South Seas exploring trip. We also encountered Monsieur Bishoppe de la Clarkette, venerable old gentleman from the French Embassy in Washington. In lights on Broadway were the names of Betty Grable (Iris Dee Wilson! and Dennis Morgan (Charles Guy) in Married Life. Their producers were Frank Polhill and Doris Flowers. We went to a fashion show and there we saw the famous John Powers, now an old man. Four of his beautiful models were Jewell Hendry, that dazzling red-head; Nell Holden, a cute litle blonde; and Louise Ellison and Celia Parker, those shapely brunettes. Two style experts, Eldis Lyons and Ima Lee Hendry, were there also. Then on the same corner we passed W. H. (Droop) Bennett, telling all the girls that they looked just like Suge (Alice Howard). We went to Brooklyn, and right in the middle of the metropolis was The Tree with Toby Walker leaning against it. He had been appointed its official waterer after his discharge from the French Foreign Legion. We visited Humphrey House, recreation center for children in the slums and saw its founder, Elizabeth Humphrey. The recreational director was Everette Blair. He had finally received his degree from T. S. I. H. L. (Tide Swamp. Institute of Higher Learning), after many long years of work and study. A Salvation Army parade came through Brooklyn while we were there. The band's drum majorettes were Janie Austin, Frances Blue, and £lla Mae Courtney, who threw her baton up. She failed to catch it and it hit the drum major, F. P. Johnson, luckily on the head, so it did not injure him. (Continued on page 48)
